A top adviser of the interim government said on Tuesday that India-funded projects are “very important” and will continue under the new administration in Bangladesh.

Finance Adviser Salehuddin Ahmed also said Dhaka looks forward to “enhanced cooperation” with New Delhi during his meeting with Indian High Commissioner Pranay Verma here, the state-run BSS news agency reported.

“Already, the projects they (India) have with us are big projects, and we’ll continue those, as those are not small projects and we’ll take another big project for the benefits of ours...,” the report quoted him as saying. “We’ll not stop on whatever we have got,” he added.
